A video explaining how to use publicly available genomics data to figure out which COVID variants need watching: youtu.be/6z9GQHcZV-k . Thanks to Sally Otto (@sarperotto) of the BC COVID-19 Modelling Group for walking through her methods.

Dailyhive reports temperature for Tuesday in Vancouver of 31ºC with a “feels like 37ºC” and a headline “Incoming heatwave could make Vancouver feel close to 40ºC next week”. Move over covid, inflation rates are the new epidemic (grocery store —> city taxes —>the weather).

COVID-19 Update: Cases in BC are still rising, but more slowly, and we appear to be approaching the BA.2-driven peak. [Uses only cases among those 70 and older, a more consistently tested group. From: May 5 2022 BCCDC Case Data.]

I was planning to make this video short (hence the comment early on) but short takes a lot more time than long so minor fail there. Under 20 minutes at least.

In the next couple of weeks, the @bcCOVID19group will aim to post updates via twitter to get a better sense of the changing Omicron situation.

Via @vb_jens, here's a look at the rising number in hospital (dark green) and ICU (pink). New cases per day are hovering between 2000-4000, but we know that reflects testing limits.

Because BC continues to recommend testing for older individuals, we can use trends in people 70+ to correct case counts in those <70. The estimated number of cases that would have been reported today is 12583 if testing limits not been exceeded, 6x more than the 2446 reported.
